PLASP’s Volunteer Program

PLASP’s Volunteer Program helps to define PLASP as a community organization. At PLASP, we believe in the value of providing members of the community with learning opportunities and practical work experiences in our programs and office.

Each year more than 1,700 people participate in PLASP volunteer opportunities and placements

Our volunteers and students on placement contribute more than 66,000 hours every year

Volunteer Opportunities

1. Volunteers: Most PLASP volunteers choose to participate directly with the children in our programs, and in this way the Volunteer Program brings the community to the children. Volunteers, with their many unique talents, work alongside staff to provide high quality programs for the children.

Other volunteers choose to work in the PLASP office assisting with administrative tasks and gaining office experience.

2. Students on Placement: As part of our commitment to the community and to the development of early learning and high quality child care, PLASP provides placements for students. Most often students on placement participate in our Early Learning and Child Care Centres under the guidance and supervision of PLASP staff. Others gain experience in the PLASP office to complement their area of study.

3. Board Opportunities: The volunteer Board of Directors is comprised of experts in various aspects of business who are well qualified to fulfill their fiduciary responsibilities.
